You guys are so RAD!
I want a whole video of you imitating gecko calls :P You're totally right though, they're like Pokemon! I never thought of it that way!
That would probably be our most successful video of a all time 😂
I find it hard to believe that you, of all people, have never noticed that geckos are Pokemon. I refuse to believe it!
Brilliant! Clint gecko text tones...
That would be hilarious 😂
(ps love your channel, Snake Discovery)
That would be a fun collab between the two of you, i think! I know I would probably watch it a thousand times 😂
if this happens, i’m changing everyone in my house’s ringtone to “Tokeh! Tokeh!”
I'm a simple reptile fan: I see clint I see crested geckos I read rad, I like
That isnt simple
198 other people thought it was
@@elontusk8018 yes but only 1 has the high ground
The High Ground they could all have the high ground...
Crested gecko: *jumps out of Clint’s hand slamming into the table*
Clint: continues to speak like absolutely nothing happened
Thats just what owning a crested gecko is like 😅🐊
MadHatt3r I can agree!
thats normal 4 a crestie so ye thats y
They won’t get hurt for it
You inspired me to get a crested gecko!! Her name is Ziggy and she is doing great!!! Great video!🦎😎
Joel Riley Ziggy hmm, LIKE LEOPARD GECKO’s LEOPARD GECKO
I will probobly get one sune they are the most cute and "easy to car of" and my dogs name is Ziggy I didn't know it can also be a girl
My ball pythons name is ziggy ❤️
Crested geckos are awesome I have a male named Thor and a female named Ember
I have a Crestie named Slash 😊
We have three Cresties, they are definitely among the best pet reptiles! I love the fact-driven format of this video...looking forward to the series!
Aquarimax Pets I have a crestie as well, mine never jumps though lol, he’s so mellow / chill.
Mines not mellow and chill mine want to crawl along my walls..
0:50 new ringtone confirmed
Great idea!
Heard all I needed to hear, geckos are pokemon! GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL!!!!!!!! (Or not because taking them from the wild is bad!) GOTTA BUY 'EM ALL!!!!!!! (From well known b&bic animal breeders who take good care of all their creatures) YEAH!!!!!
That's a very nice song, can I get it on I tunes?😁
Chloe Mae GOTTA ADOPT THEM ALL I just wanted to say one
I am THISCLOSE to finally getting a crested gecko and I can’t waaaiiiiiiit!! Literally all because I found your video “5 of the best pet reptiles for beginners” I really wanted a leopard gecko but I was a little ambivalent over housing and feeding them bugs. I fell down the rabbit hole that is your channel when I discovered cresties. I was like wait. Basically a “vegan animal” of sorts you say?! they’re chill? And nocturnal like me? And so so beautiful?! Yes please! So I’ve been doing literally about five months of researching and video watching and soul searching and waiting and have decided that yup. I really really do want myself a crested gecko. Saw your video about the vivarium set up but ultimately found a different channel that showed a tutorial on how to turn an old empty 20 long fish tank in to a self cleaning one and will do that. ANYWAYS thank you again for your awesome videos, once I get the crestie and it’s situated I’ll debate if I want to get a snake next. I definitely want to buy a blue tongue skink as I’ve mentioned in other comments before. (PS sorry I wrote a small book here, I’m just really excited about getting a gecko 🤗🤗) love your channel! You change peoples opinions and I thank you for that!
Just remember that you'll still need bugs from time to time!
jessica cotter they don’t *need* them but they are very beneficial for enrichment and underweight geckos. 🙂🦎
Natasha B I was thinking about getting a leopard gecko too. but once I saw a crested gecko I know it was the right one to get so I got one.his name is Rex .
Le egg Wait can’t you feed them formulas that include them?
@@mambokixxx that's a good question. I would like to know the answer to that as well.
I know it's "Clint's Reptiles", but any chance in the future you introduce some amphibian videos? Top 4 best pet Frogs? 😁 Keep up the vids, my bf & I enjoy watching them! - Ali
Hey Alicia Combs. Great Idea!
I agree
He did
Glad im not the only person who thinks the “extinct” fact is the coolest😅
I LOVE this new series! Would love to see videos like this for bearded dragons and tegus!
Hey Katie Corcoran. Agreed! :)
Loved the video Clint, the new format is awesome, I was particularly fond of the thumbnail. Please do more like this, maybe a bearded dragon video
They're one of my favorite lizards because of their eye lashes!
Wow great timing! Your first ever video inspired me to get a crested gecko (I now have 4!) And today I'm picking up my first tokay gecko! I also plan on getting day geckos and pictus geckos in the near future. :)
Very nice. If you get a CBB baby Tokay and handle it frequently, they can be nice. Great Basin Serpentarium had babies right now. Tell them I sent you.
Haha same here, but i got one crestie and one auriculatus. Gecko
I loved this video!!! You must do more like this with other species!. please please please!!!
Hey greg Sockbeson. I agree 100%!
We got our first reptile a few months ago and he’s a crested gecko. We are an animal loving family but I had no idea how much I was going to enjoy and love this guy. He is so stinking cute and smart. Thank you for all your great videos, they helped us decide what was best for us and we are so happy with our decision.
After watching Clint’s passion and love for reptiles, it’s safe to say there is no reason ever to fear reptiles again. Thanks for demystifying the stereotypes of lizards Clint.
Your videos helped me make an informed decision to get my first crestie just over a month ago! Thank you for all that you do for the reptile community, and for all of your honest and interesting information! Keep up the great work Clint!
Thank you so much for putting out scientific, educational and fun videos! My son is absolutely obsessed with absorbing scientific knowledge like a sponge and this video is just packed full!
As some one who has only used your channel for care tips and ideas for my reptile room, I love this idea!
I love this new series idea, so so very much. I already want to binge watch all the ones that are to be made!
Hey Tayler L. Same with Me! ;)
Cresties are incredibile animals!! I can't wait to have on of my own, this video make me want one even more badly than before!!
Crested geckos are awesome and so is Clint! Together, they are unstoppable!
I have one question, I have heard three different answers on this. It's about lighting for a crested gecko terrarium. I have heard that
1. Crested geckos don't need a uvb light and that it isn't worth getting it for them
2. Crested geckos can have a uvb light, but it should only be on for 4-6 hours
3. It is beneficial for crested geckos to have a uvb light and it should be set for a day and night cycle for both the summer and winter months, 14 hours on in the summer, and 10 hours in the winter. The gecko should also have plenty of foliage, and several spots to be able to get out of the light should it need to.
I am currently using the 3rd option above, and I feel like replicating what I would think to be as close to a true day and night cycle, would be the best option. However, I have heard others say that providing too much light can hurt their eyes and option 1, or 2 is better. My thought is if you provide enough foliage, and objects for the gecko to get away from the light, then there should be no problem. I am not having any problems with my gecko, he seems to be perfectly fine, but I don't want to cause him any harm, or stress. I figured that I would ask on this channel to see what the better choice is.
Our Tokay Geckos bark at us whenever we have to handle them to give them health checks each week! Our Crested Geckos usually never make noise during the day or when we handle them.
Video idea! Top 5 best geckos you could possibly own
I like this idea!
Luna The leopard gecko I think crested geckos are the best
Karry The Crested Gecko well I think you can tell my opinion by my name
Blooper reel at the end is about what you should expect from handling crested geckos. They do chill out with age but they're still pretty wiggly and hoppy. More hoppy even than tree frogs in my experience. Great pet geckos anyway. I have three.
I found your channel a few weeks ago and can’t stop watching them haha. I have 2 red ear sliders named kiwi and Gilbert for a year now. I’ve been looking for a new friend for a few weeks and after watching some videos about the crested geckos I decided to get one a few days ago. He’s so cool and cute haha. I never thought of getting a lizard or anything close to them. I normally don’t like small things that move quick ahah. But you sold me on the crested gecko and I’m so happy you changed my mind about these guys and other reptiles. Thank you :)
Thank you for making these videos, I actually got a creasted gecko today after look around for a while, I was scared of reptile until your enthusiasm and knowledge found my rational brain.
Thanks so much again keep up the great videos 👍
I don't know why but I love the way you act on camera and around the geckos its amazing keep it up!
Day 3 of having my new beloved crested gecko Nero. Huge thank you to you. Keep kicking ass and teaching us about reptiles.
Thank you for these videos! Watching your reptile compare videos inspired me to get a crested gecko of my own. Her name is mimzie and she’s apart of the family!
I loved the bloopers at the end 😂 the talking and then *splat*.
I was watching a D&D campaign on CZcams where a lizardfolk technician absent-mindedly licked the goggles he was wearing because apparently he has the same sort of eyes as crested geckos.
I cant even count how many times I've watched this video. I know there are tons of crested gecko videos on youtube but I still want more!
My crested goes across the ceiling of his cage all the time. A quirky boy.
I got my crested gecko on clearance because he was a baby without a tail, but that’s their loss because Frogbutt is so much more adorable as the top-heavy belly-flop-maniac that he was meant to be.
it is my first time notice that baby crested geckos are that small :))) soo adorable
Great to see another Crested gecko video. They do make fabulous pets!
I was always a snake person but around 6 months ago started keeping crested geckos. I agree with you they are rad! I just love mine. I have one that would have been perfect for your video, she never jumps just sits there like a potato.
Absolutely loved this video. Entertaining and informative. Happy to see the regular branding back as well.
This video is stinkin' rad and I loved finding out some of these new facts! (to me)
I agree 100% that i want to see more like this!
I went to Repticon today for the first time. I was trying to sort out whether I want a ball python or leopard gecko as my first reptile. I left being totally decided on a crested gecko.
In my opinion neither video or pictures can do justice to just how ADORABLE and AWESOME they are unless you see them in person. Absolutely so freaking cool.
Cresties are rad! I have one named Susan! I absolutely love your videos! Thanks for the quality content!
As a new owner of a crested gecko, the bloopers at the end is 90% of how mine acts lol, I struggle getting him out a lot of the times. And learning more about the technical side of them was fun, did not know of the axanthic, may look into another one
Actually as a matter of fact, does anyone have any recommendations of how to get mine out between his vines and all that he escapes from me in?
As a mother of (bearded) dragons I am biased but would love a stinking rad facts about beardies!
I held a baby Crested Gecko today! They are SO soft! And also very jumpy, constandly jumping off my hand to my shoulder and then tried to climb into my hair. Just doing my research before and if I get one!
I loved it 💓 please keep doing the bloopers 🙏 😅
I use your videos in my classroom, I have a crested gecko as a class pet! Thanks for sharing all these great videos! :)
Since I haven't seen a comment about it.
"Alphone" is probably pronounced like you would "Alphonse", but without the s, obviously. Pretty uncommon first name.
Guichenot can be decomposed as such:
"Gu" like in "guardian"
"i" like in "since" or "still"
"ch" is pronounced "sh", for example like in "shenanigans"
"e" is pronounced "uh"
"not" pronounced like "no" (the "t" is silent)
So you actually all pronounced it right except for the beginning (the u is silent, just like in "guardian =D).
Thanks for the amazing rad facts!
Thanks Clint!! Now I have to get some cresties!!
This new format is great. Cannot wait for video with rad facts about boa constrictors.
Hey Михаил Верюжский. Вы говорите по русский? :)
Да.
Awesome video. I really hope you'll continue this series. Could you do leopard geckos next? Because for some reason the popular information on these guys is so incredibly wrong I think some scientific information on them may be really helpful to a lot of people.
I'll try to cover them soon!
This is the one reptile that my sister is not afraid of. Probably because they are CRAZY soft. Even their little spikes. Very soft. Kind of like a horse muzzle, if you've ever felt one.
Honestly u couldn't of released this at a better time I'm thinking about getting one and IV done all the research and stuff and this just makes me want to get one even faster
It was because of your first video of crested geckos that I bought one and haven’t been happier
5:54 WHY IS IT FLYING LOLOLOL
Yay! I just got a crested gecko, named him Toothless. I got him this past weekend at the Taylor mi expo.
I'm excited for you!
I absolutely love your videos and content not to mention your awesome personality. You’re stinkin’ rad!!!!
7:24 his coloring is incredible!! I'm loving the yellow on him
I know im a bit late, but ive had a crested gecko for about 2 weeks now, and mine always climbs on the ceiling of her terrarium aha. I was worried at first and took her off, but she was perfectly ok with it, even when she was in shed (I have one of those mesh ceilings cos its an exo terra terrarium, so its easier to grip to) :D
Such beautiful creatures! I'm thinking of getting one (or maybe a pair, male and female), not sure if I'll get one or two yet but I fell head over heels for this lizard since the day I saw your first video on them!
If you do get a pair make sure they aren’t cohabbed.
I have 6 of these guys as pets, split evenly between the two sexes. For well over a year I did a copious amount of research, almost constantly watching videos, asking questions, and reading up in forums and such. In March I got my first two and immediately fell in love but since they grow so slow I was in a rush for bigger ones. My brother bought me 2 20+ gram cresties in June. I swore that would be it but then I went to my breeders website after an update from her season and had to get more so in September I brought home 2 more (I don't like odd numbers so everything has to have a pair 🤷🏾♀️.) Now I'm trying to stop buying them because 6 30x13x13 tanks and large kritter keepers take up quit a bit of space. I don't plan on breeding so everyone needs their own space but they are so stinkin' cute I want them all! 😭
Great video format! I'd love to see more videos in this style! :D
Crested Geckos are like Potato Chips can't have just one.
I really enjoy your channel.
You should do a video on your shirt and tie collection. You appear to have lots of them.
Very educational videos!
I love how he's from louisiana it makes me happy
I’m laughing way to hard on the splat when it Made a leap of faith, 10/10 super cute scaly doggo
I know. I cringe when I hear it. Goofballs...
Ya my beardie fred does that for my desk idk it’s cute and horrible scary at the same time lol
Soon as I held one and it walked across my hand I said "Sold" and I took it home! Yes they are awesome! I enjoy breeding them also very easy to do!
"Rad" is a great word. My kids tell me it's an "old man" word. But they're just rad enough to appreciate being rad.
the bloopers at the end made my day
Now THIS is the content I was looking forward to! 10/10. 💖
Love this!!! Honestly knowing a bunch of facts about all the reptiles you’ve had would be amazing. Definitely a series I’d watch!!
The bloopers in this have me dead 😂
You sold me on cresties Clint! I picked up my new baby Saturday and fell in love instantly ♥️ Her name is Nouméa and she’s stinking rad for sure! I also put together a bioactive enclosure very similar to yours and she loves it.
Thanks for the amazing content.
Another stinkin rad video. :)
My friend and I were just talking about how cresties jump into the void like nothing bad could ever happen to them. 😂 Watching through tons of your videos to refresh my mind on research, I’m adopting a crested gecko soon!
I'd love to see more videos like this!
Super rad facts! I like the blooper reel at the end
Yes, crestie facts!!! I absolutely ADORE my crestie, she is a source of joy every single day. Such adorable little goofballs
Wow I learned a lot, thank you! It’s very helpful since I want to have a pet Crested Gecko of my own someday
Crested gecko are definitely my favourite.
They're so cute but alas... I like backcountry hiking too much 😂
I would love to know more facts about common pet snakes like ball pythons or boa constrictors!
Let's do it!
Love when the gecko just fuckin jumps off his hand and smacks on the table 🤣
I love this series. Great job Clint.
Cool video, I think crested geckos are very interesting and cool👍
My 1st reptile and one of my favorites. I own several cresties and seem to keep adding to the family.
Would love a stinking rad video on the following, Argentine Tegus, Ackie Monitors, Blackthroat Monitors, and Leachieanus Geckos.
Loving the new format! I hope you do more of these on different species! Go on with your rad self, Clint!
You should mention that crested geckos will overheat from your body heat if you hold it for too long
you can always tell the difference between an experienced individual and a rookie haha. nice video man.
This just makes me love them even more! I'd definitely watch this as a series. Maybe next you can do garter snakes?
Clint is my hero tbh
I love natural history videos as well as husbandry videos, I am especially interested in conservation of reptiles and amphibians, and pretty much any video you put out, even if it is just you loading and unloading the dishwasher.
I have an emerald green crestie with no tail (I got him that way) and he's awesome
Honestly, wish you were a professor at my college! Awesome video! 🦎
Let your college know. I'll be looking for a new job soon :)
@@ClintsReptiles SUNY College at Oneonta in New York! Not sure if you'd want to move here, but our biology department is slowly incorporating research with herpetology. You'd quickly become a favorite professor!
I had 2 crested geckos a couple years ago, they bred and laid eggs. Anyways the one thing I hated so much is that they are so jumpy so it was kind of annoying trying to keep them from jumping away. Other than that they are very good pets, easy to care for.
Awesome vid. Loved the facts about their scientific name and genus.
Your Cresties always look so happy and content :-), one of them REALLY likes your tie ;-). The baby is absolutely adorable!!!
